What hogwash.
I guess you can justify political support for just about anything, then, right?
I mean, do you have a single principle that you refuse to sacrifice on the altar of political expedience?
If you are a Christian, you know its not hogwash.
My greatest political principle is to vote for the most conservative candidate that I can....whether he or she is conservative enough to suit me or not.
I'm beginning to believe that you don't really understand American politics.
